Goes without saying every pilot over at a major carrier welcomed with open arms. I am excited every time I have a newhire ride my JS. Fantastic opportunities out there.

And I'm excited when at a Legacy I fly what used to be a Regional route. heck, a Columbus overnight is a whole of a hell lot better as a legacy pilot than a regional pulot.

Overall parking Regional AC is a good thing.

Also, what is the time frame for the parking/change? Table no say.
Which is why Horizon is only 3%. They retired an entire fleet. Horizon is over staffed with pilots. I’m surprised GoJet and Air Wisconsin made it to 2023.

That is right. Today, they have 33 planes, per Planespotters. They also have contracted with Skywest to fly another 30, as they have the last few years.

Yep . I’m flying to some of the same cities now as I did during my time at the regionals. However, the hotels are better , no more Laquinatas, Best Westerns,Fairfield inns, with local hookers turning tricks in the room across the hall from you , and the paycheck is alot bigger . Now the only caveat is instead of having one old fat FA to deal with, now we have 4 old fat ones 😂😂😂
